The car will stop when you pull the brake handle, but it won't stay up? Easy fix: there is a metal thing in there down by the handle's pivot point that looks like part of a gear, and a plastic thing that meshes with it to hold the handle where you want it. (Lovely technical terms, eh?) The plastic thing, and sometimes the part-gear, has worn out. Things happen in 38 years. The fix is to buy an E-brake handle rebuild kit and install it in the brake handle.
On most cars with a foot pedal parking brake, there is a handle usually just above it that you pull to release the brake.
The parking brake light comes on when you engage the parking brake. Pull the parking brake release handle. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- the brake light also comes on if the brake fluid level in the brake master cylinder is low ( in your engine compartment )
That's what I am asking you. How do you replace a parking brake handle on an S-10 1996 Chevy Blazer?
On the newer vehicles, you push the parking brake down to release the parking brake. Older vehicles have a release handle on the lower left side of the dashboard.
Depress the button on the parking brake handle and move the lever down
Most auto repair shops and garages have qualified mechanics which can repair your brake. You could get advice from an auto shop if you are trying to do it yourself.
Get a new one .
It releases automatically when you shift out of park. If you have to do it manually under the parking brake is a silver handle that releases it.
First, push the clutch/brake pedal all the way in (forward) with your left foot. Then, while holding that pedal in, lift the small handle (the parking brake) on the right side of the engine housing (just above the right foot rest area) with your right hand. While holding the small handle all the way up, release the clutch/brake pedal. The pedal will move back only a short distance and stay there. The parking brake is set. To release the parking brake, just push the clutch/brake pedal forward and the small parking brake handle will fall down, releasing the parking brake. By PhilfromPA
If it doesn't have a release handle, you step down on the parking brake pedal one more time to release it.
